16 Luxurious Advent Calendars to Help You Count Down to Christmas in Style
Let the countdown begin!
As this holiday season inches closer and closer, it's important to keep cherished traditions alive with your loved ones and friends. And let's be honest: It's not just the kids who feel the joy and anticipation of counting the days down until Christmas.
Advent calendars first date back to the mid-19th century when German Protestants would make chalk marks on doors and lit candles to count the days leading up to Christmas. Gerhard Lang later introduced the first printed Advent calendar with small doors opening to reveal holiday-themed photos in the early 1900s. Since then, these beloved calendars have become holiday staples in homes across the world with their tiny trinkets.
While there are so many hitting the market each year, these luxury Advent calendars add the extra detail at the end—or beginning—of our December nights that will make this year's holiday season just as sweet. For those friends and family members with whom you can't celebrate in person, gifting a beautiful Advent calendar is the perfect way to stay close even with the distance.
Keep December merry all month long with daily little surprises from these luxurious Advent calendars. Happy counting!
